Who are we?
Lamorinda Toastmasters is a chapter of Toastmasters International. The mission of our club is to provide a mutually supportive and positive learning environment in which every member has the opportunity to develop communication and leadership skills, which in turn foster self-confidence and personal growth. Each of us came to the club for different reasons but we all share the common goal of improving and refining our public speaking skills.
Where do we meet?
We meet every Tuesday night at 7:30pm at the Veterans Hall on Mount Diablo boulevard in Lafayette:

What will you achieve if you join?
Toastmasters will give you the skills and confidence you need to effectively express yourself in any situation. Whether you are a professional, student, stay-at-home parent or retiree, Toastmasters is the most efficient, enjoyable and affordable way of gaining great communication skills. By learning to effectively formulate and express your ideas, you open an entirely new world of possibilities. Youll be more persuasive and confident when giving presentations, and youll improve your one-on-one dealings with others.
How does it work?
Dont worry! Everyone in a Toastmasters club was once at the level you are now. The environment is friendly and supportive, and the self-paced program allows you to build confidence with each speaking assignment. Constructive evaluation is the heart of the Toastmasters program. Each time you give a prepared speech, an evaluator will point out strengths and suggest improvements.
